GLAStR EZ FIT (AGL01801) Review: iPhone 12 & 12 Pro Screen Protector

For weeks, I’ve been putting the GLAStR EZ FIT (AGL01801) screen protectors through their paces on my iPhone 12 Pro. This 2-pack promises effortless installation and robust protection, and I’m here to share my honest experience after extensive real-world use.

The key selling point here is the EZ FIT alignment tray. It’s a clever addition that genuinely simplifies the application process, even for someone like me who’s usually clumsy with screen protectors. The claimed 9H hardness is also a significant factor when considering protection against scratches.

Performance & Installation

Installation was, as promised, a breeze. The alignment tray is incredibly helpful, ensuring perfect placement every time. I appreciated the included instructions, although even without them, the process felt intuitive. There were absolutely no bubbles or dust particles trapped underneath, a testament to the quality of the adhesive. The oleophobic coating does a decent job of repelling fingerprints, although it’s not perfect – you’ll still need to wipe the screen occasionally.

In terms of everyday use, the screen protector is virtually invisible. It doesn’t impact touch sensitivity at all, and the clarity is excellent. I haven’t experienced any issues with responsiveness, and the screen remains perfectly protected from minor scratches and bumps. I’ve subjected it to accidental drops and even a few close calls with keys in my pocket, and it has held up admirably.

The case compatibility is also a plus. I use a Spigen case, and the screen protector fits perfectly underneath, avoiding any lifting or peeling at the edges, a problem I’ve experienced with other protectors in the past. This is a significant advantage and a crucial factor for many.

The water resistance feature has been tested in light rain, and it successfully repels droplets. However, I wouldn’t recommend submerging your phone intentionally. The personal and bubble-free claims are accurate.

Pros & Cons

    Pros:

  • Easy Installation thanks to the EZ FIT tray
  • Excellent Clarity and Touch Sensitivity
  • Robust 9H Hardness Protection
  • Case Friendly Design
  • Effective Oleophobic Coating (minimizes fingerprints)
  • Value for money (2-pack)

    Cons:

  • Fingerprint resistance isn’t perfect; occasional cleaning is necessary
  • Compatibility limited to iPhone 12 and 12 Pro (6.1-inch)

Final Verdict

The GLAStR EZ FIT (AGL01801) screen protectors provide excellent value and peace of mind. The EZ FIT system truly revolutionizes installation, making it a simple process even for those unfamiliar with applying screen protectors. While the oleophobic coating isn’t perfect, the overall protection and ease of use make this a strong contender in the market. If you own an iPhone 12 or 12 Pro (6.1-inch), I highly recommend giving the GLAStR EZ FIT a try. It’s a great option for anyone looking for a reliable and user-friendly screen protector.
